Thankful Tuesdays: Home is where the heart is

We've been taking a peek into various small spaces for little people, and I couldn't help marveling at how each space is unique, thanks to the people that live in that home.

So this week, I am thankful for what makes a house a home:

:: Laughter that fills the empty gaps and rings through the rooms in the morning. And songs that are sung, that filter through the walls and make me smile.

:: Messy meals around the table, that is sticky from little fingers. Tummies that get fed while gathering together as a family.

:: That same table, splattered with paint or streaked with crayon marks from some happy half hour of art.

:: Books, that get read aloud and are enjoyed together as a family.

:: Containers, that sort and hold all manner of useful things and sometimes things that are precious.

Baby J was riding in a "space ship". A Papa-powered one.

:: Smiles, that brighten up the home more than any expensive painting can.

Sometimes, it is a happy problem to ponder about what to cook for dinner, or what colour bedsheets will match our room... isn't it?
